About this specimen

The colour arrives all at once in the centre: a knot of blue-violet fluorite cubes, faces stepped and pitted, set into a plate that is otherwise pale grey-lilac and covered in a low, bumpy crust. A second group breaks the upper edge, almost black-blue where the crystals thicken, and cream-tan patches thread between the two.

Fujian blue fluorite in this shade usually carries two histories at once — growth, then partial re-dissolution by later fluids, which rounds cube edges and leaves the stepped, corroded faces the trade calls etching. The frosted surround is a fine crust of tiny crystals spread over the whole plate; follow the edge with a fingertip and you can feel where the coarse crystal and the crust give way to each other.

Substantial for a palm piece at 9.1 × 6.9 × 4.3 cm and 265 g, it displays face-up without a base, which is how it was photographed. The specimen in these frames is the one that ships.
